Testimonials
"There's a lot of benefit to being able to throw our ideas at the wall, then come out the other side with a cohesive idea and direction; a very strong understanding of the position we're in, and where we need to go.
When I first came to you, I had a napkin sketch, and now we have a full team ready to go."
Seung P.
Advising Client
"I feel like I wouldn't be in the process of opening and making it happen without Chris; and the guidance through the development world has been great.
Turning an idea into reality, I attribute a lot of that to your help."
Mark Messner
Founder - Rendezvous Climbing
"The only way through is with manageable bites, and to be coached by somebody who's done this so they know those pain points.
You've provided perfectly, guiding us right through all this... and I feel like it's going to work, if we can dial in everything that's necessary."
